The Bible: And why did we study it?

 The Bible is a book that is read by Catholics and Christians. Bibles were written by people back over 2,000 years. We read the Bible because of the following reasons.  We read the Bible because we can learn our historical journies. The key question is "Where did we all come from?" We read the Bible because we wanted to know who God is. That means to know God better. The key question is "Who is he?" We read the Bible because we wanted to know our identity better. The key question is "Why do we do the thing we do?" We read the Bible because we can learn the meaningless of our lives or lives. The key question is "What is the meaning of life?"

Why is "Sir John A. Macdonald" important to us?

 Sir John A. Macdonald was very important to all fellow Canadians. He is also a Canadian politician, a lawyer, and a world leader. He did a lot of wonderful things for us about why Canada is a good country to live in. When he was 15, he travelled to Toronto to gain a law degree to support his family. He is also controlling for protecting most of the territories that Canada controls.  Also, he is expanding the railway. He has worked to make the entry of "Prince Edward Island" safe for us. Also, he has made Canada very big for us to live in. So, that's why this man is important for us.
